I was wondering: why would anyone set up a wall on 99.80, when there is no almost depth till 90? I'd say there might be a dumping round 2 on Bitstamp.
But it's strange. If those were goxcoins, why would they take such a high price difference? Or was cashing out via gox never intended at all and high rollers knew already, that they have to use another exchange? Well okay, they didn't buy at 114.48 and sold at 90 of course - it's something inbetween and maybe not that huge difference at all.
But it's all speculation..
I suspect a panic by weak hands holding MTGox USD not the high rollers. Hence the dump on Bitstamp.

Agreed, but dumps on bitstamp need to be in proportion to MtGox buy-ups for that thesis to make sense. We've only seen a handful of buy-ups and dumps. If MtGox stays stable (as it is), I wouldn't expect prices to go down on bitstamp.

More than a $10 USD difference between Bitstamp and Mt.Gox... I mean, I get the press release and all... but that doesn't seem like a sufficient reason. Especially for people who have a lot of USD on Mt.Gox, you'd think they would be fine with waiting a few weeks for the issue to resolve... (which I think it will)

"Money I can't afford to lose" aside, I wouldn't even risk "money i don't want to lose" by holding cash at Gox. Gox has never release their strategy for holding cash. We have no idea if it includes segregated accounts or how much has been frozen in the US bank seizure. Taking a 20% loss now is much better then taking a 100% loss tomorrow.

If they believe: 1) That MtGox is in trouble and that their MTGox USD will become worthless or only a few cents on the dollar 2) That (1) above will cause the BTC / USD exchange rate to plunge. Then it makes a lot of sense to take up to a 20% loss by buying on MTGox and then selling on BitStamp.
